contact form won't send
Question
I found this code here on Stackoverlow but I can't get it to work. It reacts fine when I hit the Submit, but I don't recieve any mails.
<?php
if(isset($_POST['submit'])){
$to = "email@example.com"; // this is your Email address
$from = $_POST['email']; // this is the sender's Email address
$first_name = $_POST['first_name'];
$last_name = $_POST['last_name'];
$subject = "Form submission";
$subject2 = "Copy of your form submission";
$message = $first_name . " " . $last_name . " wrote the following:" . "\n\n" . $_POST['message'];
$message2 = "Here is a copy of your message " . $first_name . "\n\n" . $_POST['message'];
$headers = "From:" . $from;
$headers2 = "From:" . $to;
mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);
mail($from,$subject2,$message2,$headers2); // sends a copy of the message to the sender
echo "Mail Sent. Thank you " . $first_name . ", we will contact you shortly.";
// You can also use header('Location: thank_you.php'); to redirect to another page.
}
?>
<!DOCTYPE html>
<head>
<title>Form submission</title>
</head>
<body>
<form action="" method="post">
First Name: <input type="text" name="first_name"><br>
Last Name: <input type="text" name="last_name"><br>
Email: <input type="text" name="email"><br>
Message:<br><textarea rows="5" name="message" cols="30"></textarea><br>
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
</body>
</html>
Anyone who can help me. I should maybe say I use Joomla, if that has something to do with it? .. and of course I changed the $to to my email ;)

I have check your code, it looks good. If you check your code on Localhost , you have to use SMTP to send an emails or enable SMTP in JOOMLA
If you are try this code on server, please check that your service provider support PHP mail in order to send an emails. if they are not allow you have to contact host service provider and/ or use SMTP mail server
